Draft 802.11n Wireless Connectivity
ZyXEL NWD-170N/NWD-370N is the perfect solution for home users
demanding cutting-edge, versatile networking devices.Taking advantage of
Draft IEEE 802.11n technology, the NWD-170N/NWD-370N can efficiently
pinpoint client computers and select adequate methods to exchange radio
signals. Coupled with Draft 802.11n clients, the NWD-170N/NWD-370N can
truly push wireless coverage to the limit.With the upcoming IEEE 802.11n
technology, the NWD-170N/NWD-370N can eliminate dead zones and
extend coverage up to 4 times, while retaining the backward-compatibility
with all 802.11b/g devices.
Enhanced Wireless Security and Privacy
In addition to the basic 64/128/152-bit WEP encryption, new wireless
security mechanisms such as 802.1x authentication and Wi-Fi Protected
Access Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK) are employed by NWD-
170N/NWD-370 to enhance network protection.These refined security
measures allow only authorized users to access the network in order to
protect data from being tapped during wireless transmissions.
Easy Installation with Automatic Multilingual Interface
The auto setup wizard helps you install and setup wireless connections
without hassle.The intuitive user interface guides you through the
configuration process with the language of choice, or automatically
switches to the language corresponding to the Windows regional setting.
